With all due respect to the first answer, dual core does not in itself provide 64-bit OS support. You'll need to know the CPU # sequence of the processor. This should have been provided in the details of the original order from Dell.
If the processor is:
L7000,T7000, U7000, or T5000, then YES, the CPU supports 64 bit OS.
However, if it is:
T2000 or U2000, then NO - you can only use 32 bit OS

the 32-bit version is for computers with single core processors and the 64-bit for dual core. so go with the 64-bit, you should have no problems
